Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the Latin 'invincibilis', combining the negative prefix 'in-' (not) and 'vincere' (to conquer or defeat). Entering the English language in the late 14th century via Old French, the word initially maintained its literal sense of being incapable of being conquered in battle before expanding to general metaphorical invulnerability.
